Strategies for Sustaining Iberia's Solar Surge
Asset Management | Curtailment Mitigation | Investment Opportunities
The renewable energy sectors in Spain and Portugal are at pivotal moments, with solar PV and energy storage playing critical roles in driving the transition to a cleaner, more sustainable energy system. In 2023, Spain achieved remarkable milestones, installing 5,783 MW of new ground-mounted solar capacity—an impressive 26.5% growth compared to the previous year. With solar PV now contributing 13.6% to the national energy mix, Spain is firmly positioned as a European leader in solar energy.
Meanwhile, Portugal also witnessed a favorable year, driven by increased solar capacity and a strong hydro regime. Solar technology now dominates the center-south of the country, reflecting its growing importance in the national energy mix. Despite this progress, Portugal faces significant hurdles in permitting processes, grid expansion, and project financing. These challenges are compounded by inflation, a restrictive monetary policy, and volatile electricity prices, creating uncertainties for future investments. Addressing these issues is crucial for Portugal to achieve its decarbonization targets while maintaining energy competitiveness and affordability for end-users.
This conference will explore these critical developments and challenges, providing a platform for stakeholders to exchange insights and solutions. Key discussions will include policy updates, financing models, grid integration, and leveraging synergies between solar PV and energy storage.
